    Asada fries
    John V.

    I had a little craving for some Mexican food, so I let Yelp show me the closest restaurants in the area. At first, I wasn't sure I was in the right place. I walked into a cozy little market full of Mexican/Latin staples. I almost left thinking I was in the wrong place til I saw people sitting at tables and eating. I did a little walk inside the shop, and on the far left, I found where you ordered the food. For starters, people were so welcoming! I ordered to go, and the food was nicely wrapped and packaged! The fries were crunchy and flavorful; I also ordered a large Horchata! And when I say significant, it was enormous! It was a great experience trying this place out. A must-go-to place while in Fallon

    Piñatas!!!

    We were driving thru Fallon and decided to grab a bite before heading back to Reno. THIS PLACE IS LOCATED IN A Harbor Freight SHOPPING CENTER NEAR DMV. This is a combination Mexican market AND restaurant. It seems to do a reasonably good job at both. The meats look amazingly fresh. I've lived in Mexico and this is a very nice small local market. As for the restaurant, the food is really good and reasonably priced. My husband ordered huevos rancheros with the eggs cooked VERY lightly and no rice, double beans. They did a very good job getting the eggs perfect. $7 Thumbs UP. I ordered an ala carte chili rellano. $4.50. Also thumbs up. We would DEFINITELY eat here again. NOTE: because this is also a market, they do NOT bring water or chips & salsa as in many restaurants. You can buy bottled water and buy chips. But they are not "free". I brought our water in from the car. I'm fine with this because their prices are very reasonable. If you find this review useful please vote!

    So yummy!!!

    Great new Carniceria, grocer and Mexican food restaurant, a month old in Fallon, NV. They are located next to Game Stop where the Chinese Buffet once was. These folks are from Reno and realized the need in Fallon for their specialty shop. The place was pretty busy with foot traffic on a Saturday at lunch. I enjoyed the most enthusiastic butcher singing his songs. The street tacos were A+. Got my usual canitas taco and my carne asada taco. Very flavorful. Also got a chile and cheese tamale. It's a walk up, order, sit down and then get served restaurant. Service was prompt. The owner was very friendly and greeted the patrons. I am glad that they are here and hope they do well here in Fallon. A plus feature is their Carniceria with all of the Mexican flavored meats and the availability of cultural food products for our locals. Well worth the trip to check out!

    I think the meat was supposed to be Al Pastor? But kind of bland

    3.5ish stars - limited "take home and cook" options and not amazing flavor. But I will return, and the service was great! Most of their area is eat-in and then there's a little to-go raw meat counter. There's also maybe three abbreviated aisles (like small gas station size). I went in to order meat to cook at home for dinner. I was definitely disappointed at the limited options but I'm probably spoiled from living in larger towns. They had maybe 12ish meat options total, with 2-4 pre-marinated options. Service was GOOD!! Folks were attentive and kind. Presumptuous though it may be, my Caucasian self did actually end up seasoning the meat the night that I cooked the second half and that have it more needed flavor. I will probably return but plan on seasoning it additionally at home. Love to support local!

    The place is a mix of a restaurant, butcher (Mexican cuts), and a bodega. The staff were very friendly but the food was "ok."

Our server had a lot of tables, and I think that's why our service ended up being sub par. We were the only table in the entire restaurant that didn't have waters brought to us. Our food took over 30 minutes to come out, and I absolutely don't mind, but it took 15 minutes and 3 attempts at calling my service over to get another beer. The food was great. I did ask for a spicy salsa and they brought me mild which is fine. Overall, I know what it's like to be an overwhelmed server, and the food was good. The flavors were definitely there. I went back again as I'm in town for a horse show and we are close by. The service was definitely better tonight. Jose is AMAZING!! I also had the servers whip me up a shrimp dish that was a mix of spicy and garlicky and they killed it. SO DELICIOUS!! The flavors were authentic and just in every bite. I would definitely come back!

You are served mild salsa and a cabbage mix to scoop your chips into. The cabbage had good flavor and was a unique addition, we really enjoyed it! The salsa was mild and a bit on the average side. You can tell the tomato tasted like it came from a can. My husband got the ground beef enchilada which came out steaming hot and I got the fish taco from the lunch menu, both portions were massive! We both thought the rice and beans were delicious! I was a little disappointed with the fish tacos because when I took a bite of the first one, the tortilla split and everything fell out onto my plate after the first bite (same with the others). I then had to eat my taco with a fork which was new for me. I'm someone that goes with the flow, but I must say I've never eaten a taco with a fork before. The fish was battered which I didn't mind, but it was soggy from the pico. It would've been better to have had two tortillas holding the fish taco instead of one thin tortilla and maybe put the pico on the side. The beef burrito was just ok, it needed more flavor. Our waitress was very attentive and friendly and the food came out fast. We really appreciated the service and hospitality.

My specific dish was the Mole Enchiladas. It was good but I would have enjoyed more Mole sauce over the excess cheese. I could have just got the Mole and Chicken.. Having a group of 8, we had 2 servers attending to us regularly filling our drinks, chips, & salsa. We throughly enjoyed their atmosphere as they played different variations of Latin music. Tvs surrounded the restaurant and there was a bar towards the back.
